Using total_size=59024 will set the filesystem size to the available space on /dev/mtd4 of the GTA1 device. So when you copy the image back it will be about 58 MB. You can set this to smaller values though.

Be careful to really use the mtd-ram-disk (maybe there is a real Flash-device somewhere in your development system)

Flashing a root filesystem into NAND

Converting a GTA02 image for GTA01

The techniques on this page may be used to convert a GTA02 (FreeRunner) image for use on a GTA01, provided that it is small enough to fit into the GTA01's flash.

The steps I used are shown below (corrections welcome). Please read all of this page before executing these commands, in particular the warning to make sure that /dev/mtd0 does not map to a real flash device on your system.
